Technology solutions

Effective, integrated supply chains are strategically important to any company competing on service and cost. We have the knowledge and experience to conceive, design, develop, deploy and maintain enterprise applications.

Our strength is enterprise supply chain management: warehouse management, stock and inventory control, wireless tracking, retail management and POS solutions, RFID, barcode, and the full range of logistics consultancy and solutions.

From distributed order systems and warehouse management to shop-floor management and sales and operations planning, our ERP solution is built to fuse the demand chain with the supply chain. It is designed to be customised and implemented across a range of manufacturing environments for small and mid-sized companies — make-to-order, make-to-stock, job shop and custom manufacturers, distribution and warehousing.

Functionality includes estimating and quoting, inventory control, integrated purchasing, master production scheduling (MPS), material and capacity requirements planning, demand-driven manufacturing, inventory management, business performance measurement and financial control — engineered for short response times and high transaction volumes.

Our web solutions team is a single-source provider of web design and development, document control, database management, GIS and AutoCAD integration, extranet systems, portal development, content management systems, intranets, e-business and web-based GIS.

We build in current, well-supported frameworks and databases, and we are equally comfortable working in a stack the client already runs and has to maintain after handover. Every solution is delivered with documentation, source code and a handover that leaves the client's own team able to operate it.

We follow ISO standards of practice and continuously adopt best practice to deliver the right solution.

We build mobile and handheld applications for work that happens away from a desk — field mobility for sales teams, warehouse operations, inspection and job management. Applications are designed to keep working where connectivity does not, syncing when the device comes back into coverage. Clients adopting them report better accuracy in invoicing, ordering and task management, and less time spent re-keying paper records.
